The Compumedics P-Series Patient Monitoring System incorporates electrophysiological and respiratory monitoring devices in a compact unit for the monitoring of sleep apnoea and other sleeping disorders.

The completely portable device is capable of real time monitoring as well as manipulation of large amounts of data points for accurate analysis of sleep depravation incidents. Information can be stored on board for up to 24 hours and then downloaded for clinical investigation.

The instrument has the potential to calculate on line summary information through sophisticated replay and analysis software, as well as supporting powerful reporting capabilities and fully integrated telemedicine support, for file transfer video – conferencing and remote application operation.

Judges comments –

“An extremely powerful design concept which has taken into account not only patients’ requirements but the clinical researchers dilemma to manage and analyse complex data. That data collection and analysis dramatically reduces valuable research costs to enable the benefits to reach a wider audience”
